I’m also in love with my new bowl for my KitchenAid stand mixer. We were shopping in Macy’s yesterday and I happened to find a new 6 quart bowl and I couldn’t pass it up! How awesome it will be to have 2 bowls!
I couldn’t find the price, but knew I’d buy it as long as it wasn’t more than $100.
Well, it rang up at $0.01! Whhhaaaaat?!? It apparently wasn’t supposed to be out, but since it was and their policy is that they can’t sell something for a penny, I got the bowl for $15! I’ll take it!
I did a happy dance right then and there. Two-bowl happiness! You know what else makes me happy dance? This ice cream.
I can’t even stand how good this it is. Talk about cinnamon-y! I could basically coat everything in cinnamon and sugar, so if ice cream could talk, this one would speak my language.
The Story Behind This Ice Cream Recipe
It’s actually inspired by an ice cream from our grocery store, Publix. We had Publix when we lived in Florida too and this was easily my favorite ice cream. I got it once when my dad was visiting because I knew he’d love it and he literally went about bought another carton for eat for the week. No joke, the best ice cream ever.
Why they stopped making it I will never know. I mean, I assume they stopped making it because I’ve looked for it all over and never found it. 🙁
But have no fear! I’ve finally made my own version!
I’ve been wanting to do it forever and finally got around to it. I’ve been promising the hubs, who also loved the original and he was thrilled when tasted it. Amazing. Might even be better than the Publix brand.
I came home last week to find dirty bowls that had been full of the ice cream all over the house. He’s not normally into eating ice cream all the time, but he couldn’t resist this one.
It’s smooth and creamy, but has some texture from the soft oatmeal cookies and some crunch from the mini chocolate chips.
I used fresh baked cookies from the bakery, but if you have a favorite oatmeal cookie, go with it.
And I definitely recommend the mini chocolate chips as opposed to full size. Much easier to bite into when frozen.
And as if it couldn’t get any better – you don’t need an ice cream machine! Score!!
Super easy, super flavorful and prefect for summer! Must. make.

I love that you don’t need an ice cream maker for this. So awesome. I’ve been wanting to make home made ice cream for awhile but haven’t been wanting to invest in an ice cream maker. Def. making this!
I love making ice cream without the machine – you really don’t even notice a difference!
I’m screaming yes to this! Amazing!
Thanks Jocelyn! We all scream for ice cream! 🙂
OMG freaking out! This reminds m of my favorite Ben and Jerrys flavor! Oatmeal Cookie Chunk!
Wow – I think you got every single thing I love into one recipe. Well, except for bacon – I might have to sneak some of that in there. And gorgeous pictures too!
Bacon! Sounds yummy! 🙂 Thanks Kate!
Publix totally has the BEST ice cream ever! When I lived in Lakeland, I worked for Publix corporate over in the Deli Kitchen offices. We used to get free ice cream for the department from the Dairy Plant. Our break room freezer was full of it! Those were some of the best snack break times ever!
This ice cream looks amazing, Lindsay! I could really go for a bowl of it right now. Pinned and sharing on FB. Have a great evening!
Omg, what an awesome snack break!! The benefits of working for a company that’s in the food industry – you get to eat it! Yum!! Thanks for sharing Julie!! 🙂
I was literally holding my breath while scrolling through this post hoping that an ice cream machine wasn’t needed…SO ready to make this! I’m kind of freaking out about it!
I’m so glad I didn’t use an ice cream machine then! I almost did! 🙂

First of all, I am in love with that teal bowl. Secondly, shoot, I need to go to Macy’s pronto and see if I can get some amazing luck like that! =) And lastly, which is the most important, this ice cream looks downright incredible. Pinned and ready to try!
Thanks Michelle!! The teal bowl is from Target. I think they still have them – in a couple colors too.
For the love of all that is sweet, I need this ice cream in my life right now! RIGHT NOW! Cinnamon, oatmeal cookies, chocolate chips, ice cream! And no ice cream maker! I love it!
So jealous of your new $15 bowl! Who knew Macy’s had such a policy! 🙂
If I had to pick one ice cream to live on for the rest of my life, this would be it. Love the flavors, the texture, everything about it. Awesome!
Thanks Matt! 🙂
Two bowl envy right here girlfriend! I soooo need a second bowl! What a steal. I’d really be jealous if both bowls were filled with this amazing ice cream!
What a great ice cream flavor! A batch of this ice cream would be devoured in no time at my house!

This looks super yummy but it’s difficult to find corn syrup where I’m from :(! Any substitutes?
It looks like it’s pretty easy to make your own. Here’s a link – hopefully that helps!
Oh my goodness! This looks amazing and I want a bowlful for breakfast! Publix does have great premium ice cream and it’s still 1/2 gallon too. I try to get it on sale. 🙂
Thanks Robin! I love Publix’s ice creams – and their sales are great!
Wow that sounds awesome! Love the addition of oatmeal, I can imagine that would add an extra hit of texture. 🙂
